Menu Maintenance
Menu Screens - FXMSCR
This screen contains all the programs that will be available to use from TMS. If a program is not listed on this screen then it will not be possible to add it to the menus.
The screen does not necessarily contain every program that is supplied with TMS but rather those that are pertinent to the operation needs of each client. Therefore, this screen may also be used to make additional programs available; they may be new programs or existing programs containing functionality not previously required.

Tab Pages
This button provides access to a sub-screen where the security levels for screens that contain a number of tab pages can be maintained.
For example, Resource Maintenance, pictured below, has four tab pages: Tractors, Trailers, Drivers and General Equipment, each of which may have a different security level to the others.
Using the Tab Pages button from the Menu Screens program it is possible to assign a security level that is different from the overall security of the screen. For example, the Drivers tab page may have a higher security because it contains driver cost details.
The Tab Pages screen, see below, can be used to maintain the security details for the Drivers tab page.

- If all the tab pages on a screen are to have the same security level as the screen then there is no need to complete the Tab Pages information. This option will most likely be used where certain tab pages are to have a higher security level than the screen on which they occur.
